Day 135...The Art of Endurance

Galatians 6:7-9

This is so cool! Today's verses fit perfectly with one of the things we discussed in WIRED yesterday. If you weren't there, one of the things we talked about from the life of Elijah was the fact that nothing is hidden from God and He will deal with the bad choices we make. Check out 1 Kings 21 for a good example (focus on King Ahab).

These verses in Galatians speak about this by saying that those who ignore God and live only for themselves will earn spiritual death but those who live for God will earn eternal life. Bottom line: no one slips beneath God's radar; He sees how we are living and He will deal with us accordingly.

Some days it's going to be tough to live for God. He encourages us to not grow tired and to keep on doing good to others because He is working through us and we will make a difference in other's lives.
  • If you had to give your life a grade for living for God, what would you get? Ask God to help you live more for Him and less for yourself.
  • What's one practical way you can live for God in your school this week?
